AIRF RCE June 4, 2015 News 13 Intelligent focus of visit FLGOFF Shane Ivimey PERSONNEL gained an insight into intelligence jobs at RAAF Base Edinburgh during the inaugural Exercise Djinnang on May 13. It involved 67 ADF members of the Australian Signals Directorate (ASD) who flew in on a No. 37 Squadron C-130J Hercules. The visit was a unique opportunity for members of ASD, including about 50 RAAF personnel, to gain a deeper appreciation about the diverse range of intelligence-related jobs at Edinburgh. The team visited units from the RAAF’s Information Warfare Wing (IWWG). IWWG conducts a broad range of Air Force Intelligence (AFINT) functions within the electronic warfare, air intelligence, targeting and cyber warfare domains, which are integral to enabling current and future Air Force operations. OC IWWG GPCAPT Richard Trotman-Dickenson said the future was exciting for AFINT. “As we rapidly head towards the fifth-generation Air Force, IWWG is developing new ways of doing business focused on enabling and protecting these platforms in a rapidly changing information and cyber environment,” he said. “We are also pursuing a centralised reach-back model, through the Distributed Ground Station-Australia for rapid intelligence, surveillance Australian Signals Directorate personnel are shown how 3D screens help in the targeting progress during a familiarisation tour of No. 87 Squadron.

CPL S, of ASD, said the triservice nature of the exercise was beneficial. “The visits to IWWG and No. 92 Wing units broadened our knowledge on opportunities within our trades and motivated us to view the broader “This helped develop a better understanding of each other’s roles and responsibilities and how we can collaboratively innovate and improve our processes and interaction within the Australian Intelligence Community,” WGCDR Keily said.
